Dream Legend

Wu Shandi looked at the beautiful snow-capped mountains outside Qiankun Cave. He remembered that he had learned about Kunlun Mountains in high school geography class. He never thought that Kunlun Mountains had such a cold and beautiful scenery that made people linger. He couldn't help but think of a poem by Chairman Mao: There is a fairy cave in the sky, and the infinite scenery is on the dangerous peak. At this moment, Wu Shandi quickly searched for memories about Kunlun Mountains in his mind. Kunlun Mountains, also known as Kunlun Xu, are the mountains of all ancestors in China. They are the great mountain system in central Asia and the main trunk of the mountain system in western China. The mountain range starts from the eastern part of the Pamir Plateau in the west, runs across Xinjiang and Tibet, and extends to Qinghai. It is about 2500 kilometers long, with an average altitude of 5500-6000 meters, a width of 130-200 kilometers, narrow in the west and wide in the east, with a total area of ​​more than 50 square kilometers. Kunlun Mountains have a prominent position as the "ancestor of all mountains" in the cultural history of the Chinese nation. The ancients called Kunlun Mountains the "ancestor of dragon veins" in China, and there are many beautiful legends.

Wu Shandi was immersed in the memories of Kunlun Mountain when he suddenly felt someone pat his shoulder. He turned around and looked. It turned out to be the right guardian blue bird. "You little brat, hurry up. Why are you daydreaming? If you can't get to the next post cave before dark, you will be in big trouble." The right guardian blue bird complained that Wu Shandi was standing at the entrance of the cave in a daze. After the cave entrance, there was a winding downhill path. It was indeed very slippery, with a thick layer of snow on it. The path was only 40 to 50 centimeters wide. One side of the path was close to the mountain, and the other side was a bottomless abyss. Wu Shandi did not dare to look down. His legs had long been out of control and he couldn't help shaking. Seeing Wu Shandi's ugly appearance, the blue bird wanted to laugh but couldn't laugh out loud. He had to come over and support Wu Shandi's arm with his hand, and slowly walked along the rugged path. The cold wind whistled in his ears, which sounded a bit creepy. The two were very careful, fearing that they would slide into the bottom of the abyss. The right guardian Qingniao himself was not afraid of the abyss. After all, he was a fairy, and there was no danger in using fairy magic. For Wu Shandi, there could not be any mistakes, otherwise he would fall into a place where there was no escape. Now he could only rely on himself, and the fairy could not help him. After all, there was a big difference between the fairy and the mortal. One could fly freely in the sky; the other was on the ground and could only keep his feet on the ground. After walking for a whole morning, Wu Shandi was so tired that he was panting and couldn't walk anymore. He said to the right guardian Qingniao: "Fairy guardian, I really can't walk anymore, let's find a place to rest." The right guardian Qingniao had to nod his head to show his agreement, and then said to Wu Shandi: "Let's go, there is a small cave here, you can rest for a while." After that, he took Wu Shandi's hand and led Wu Shandi into a small cave that could only accommodate three people at most. The two crouched down and went into the small cave. Although it was a little dark inside, it was a very pleasant experience without the cold wind. The right guardian blue bird came out of the cave and came back in a while later. He held a handful of white snow in his hand and handed it to Wu Shandi's mouth, indicating that Wu Shandi should eat a few bites to quench his thirst. Wu Shandi didn't hesitate to eat and took out dry food from his pocket and asked the right guardian blue bird: "Fairy, you should eat some dry food." The right guardian blue bird shook his head and said: "We immortals never eat or drink water. You should eat by yourself. When you are full, I will teach you how to guide the immortal." Wu Shandi hurriedly ate after hearing this, but he was indeed hungry. He had walked on the mountain road for a whole morning, and the weather was so cold that he was exhausted. Fortunately, Wu Shandi was a basketball player and an athlete. If it were someone else, he would have collapsed from exhaustion.

The Right Guardian Blue Bird taught Wu Shandi the Immortal's Guidance word by word, move by move, and told Wu Shandi not to have any distracting thoughts when practicing, to be relaxed and natural, not to force practice, but to let it go naturally, with good intentions, and over time, success will come naturally. After practicing, it can calm people, open mountains and point the way, and the highest level can turn stones into gold. To reach the highest level, you must have a very high talent and fate, both of which are indispensable. Not to mention whether Wu Shandi can reach the highest level is still unknown, even the Right Guardian Blue Bird has not reached the highest level, only the Left Guardian Blue Bird has reached the highest level. It is conceivable that it is quite difficult to reach the highest level, and it can only be encountered but not achieved.

Wu Shandi practiced the Immortal Pointing the Way for a while and felt very comfortable all over his body. He was not tired at all and was full of strength. The two continued on their way. There was a vast expanse of white everywhere along the way. It was easy to get visual fatigue after appreciating the beautiful scenery too much. Wu Shandi felt very bored. Wu Shandi touched the hand of the Right Guardian Blue Bird and said, "Do you have fun being a fairy?" The Right Guardian Blue Bird was overwhelmed by this question. What kind of bullshit question is this? This person's IQ is problematic. Why did the Queen Mother of the West choose such a fool? He really doesn't understand the fireworks of the world. Wu Shandi saw that the Right Guardian Blue Bird didn't say a word, thinking that he had his own difficulties in being a fairy, so he joked, "It must be not fun to be a fairy. No wonder the Seven Fairies came down to the mortal world to find men." "What are you talking about? How dare you insult our Seven Princesses." The Right Guardian Blue Bird slapped Wu Shandi twice, making Wu Shandi's eyes sparkle. Five finger marks appeared on half of his face. He staggered and almost fell. Wu Shandi pointed at the Right Guardian Blue Bird and said, "What's wrong with you? Why did you hit someone? If you have something to say, just talk it out nicely, old thing... old immortal... old immortal..." The Right Guardian Blue Bird glared at Wu Shandi fiercely and said, "I can't argue with you, but I can beat you. How can you, a stinky boy, gossip about the Seventh Princess' affairs?" Wu Shandi immediately understood that the Seventh Fairy was the daughter of the Queen Mother of the West, and the guardian should of course protect his master. Wu Shandi understood this matter and quickly apologized to the blue bird: "Right Guardian Old Immortal, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, please forgive me, I won't do it again." "There will be a next time, you stinky boy, I will definitely turn you into a mute." The Right Guardian Blue Bird made a throat-locking gesture to warn Wu Shandi. Wu Shandi also knew that he had violated someone else's taboo today and shouldn't have talked to him about his master's family scandals. Family scandals should not be made public. It seems to be a universal law of heaven and earth. Anyway, it's too late to regret it. Next time, I really need to think before speaking. Wu Shandi touched his now swollen and painful face, feeling like crying but unable to cry. If he wanted to blame someone, he should blame himself for being so bad-mouthed. He would just have to bear with it.

The Right Protector Blue Bird pointed to a peak at the bottom of the hillside with his right hand and said, "We are going to spend the night on that mountain tonight. We will be able to get there in about an hour." "Where can we see it? It's all white everywhere." Wu Shandi didn't quite believe what the Right Protector Blue Bird said, but after thinking about it, as a guardian immortal, he could naturally see it. The Right Protector Blue Bird smiled and said to Wu Shandi, "You are a mortal with limited eyesight. Of course you can't see it." Wu Shandi knew that the Right Protector Blue Bird had boundless magical powers, and he should have wanted to chat with him, but thinking about his painful face from being hit, he decided to shut up quickly to avoid suffering any more punishment in the next second. It was too boring to follow this old immortal, and he couldn't help but think of his distant hometown, his parents, teachers, and classmates. He wondered if they were okay now? He didn't know if he would be able to meet them in the future, and he shed tears just thinking about it.

"I'm thinking about the past again. Forget the past world. Face the reality and live well in the present, so that you have a chance to go back." The right guardian blue bird seemed to see through Wu Shandi's thoughts. Wu Shandi's thoughts were seen through by the right guardian blue bird, and he felt a little embarrassed, but then again, people always have seven emotions and six desires. Emotions are very strange. When you are together, you quarrel every day, and when you are not together, you miss each other every day. It's not like you gods who don't eat or drink every day and have no desires. When people are depressed, they always have to find a way to vent. There are many ways to relieve stress. Wu Shandi thought that karaoke is a good way to relieve stress. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but want to sing a song. Wu Shandi looked at the endless snow-capped mountains and couldn't help singing "Qinghai-Tibet Plateau": Who brought the ancient call, who left the thousand-year-old prayer, is there a silent song, or the long-lasting attachment, oh, I see mountains and rivers, mountains and rivers connected, ah, that is the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, who looks at the blue sky day and night, who longs for a permanent dream, is there a song of praise, or the solemnity that seems to be unchangeable, oh, I see mountains and rivers, mountains and rivers connected, ah, that is the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, ah, that is the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Wu Shandi sang as he walked, his high-pitched voice resounding throughout the valley, echoing from time to time, especially when he sang the chorus, the high notes instantly broke the sky and shook the entire Kunlun Mountains.

At this moment, there were loud noises from the top of the mountain. The right guardian blue bird looked back and shouted to Wu Shandi: "Avalanche, run up quickly and return to the cave just now." As soon as he said it, he pulled Wu Shandi up with the speed of thunder and lightning, and used the immortal guidance method to return to the small cave in an instant. When Wu Shandi heard the word avalanche, his scalp tingled. He knew something about avalanches and was very aware of their dangerousness and powerful destructive power. Usually, an avalanche breaks out from the top of the mountain. When it moves down the mountain, it roars down from a high altitude at a very high speed, sweeping everything in its path with great force until its power disappears on the vast plain. Once it occurs, its momentum is unstoppable. This "white death" can weigh millions of tons. Avalanches also carry a lot of air, so such avalanches flow more vigorously and sometimes even rush through the canyon and reach the opposite hillside. Compared with the hideousness of mudslides, floods, earthquakes and other disasters, avalanches can really be described as beautiful. Before every avalanche, the ground is always quiet, and then with a gentle "crack", the snow layer breaks, and white, stacked snow blocks and snowboards rise up, as if the mountain god suddenly exerted his inner strength to shake off a white robe on his body, or as if a white snow dragon flew up the clouds and mist, roaring down the mountain until the mountain becomes gentle. What is more terrifying than the avalanche itself is the air wave in front of the avalanche. Because the avalanche falls or slides down from a high place with great potential energy, it will cause violent vibrations in the air, so it will even form a layer of air waves at a very fast speed. This air wave is somewhat similar to the shock wave generated by the explosion of an atomic bomb. The snow flow can drive the air wave in front of it, and the impact of this air wave is more dangerous than the impact of the snow flow itself. Wherever the air wave goes, houses are destroyed, trees disappear, and people will suffocate to death. Therefore, sometimes the avalanche body itself has not arrived, but the air wave has already knocked down all obstacles on the way forward.

Wu Shandi and Qingniao were sitting in the cave, and they heard a loud noise outside. The snow on the mountain quickly moved down and slid down, whistling past. In an instant, the entire valley was covered with thick snow. Wu Shandi was worried that he might be buried in the snow and buried in this deserted Kunlun Mountain. Every time an avalanche disaster occurs in the world, there are almost no people who can survive the avalanche, unless there is a miracle. In fact, Wu Shandi's worries are unnecessary. Humans are very small in front of an avalanche, and they are swallowed up by it in an instant. But in the eyes of the right guardian Qingniao, an avalanche is just the anger of the mountain god.

The cave entrance was slowly blocked by snow. Seeing this, the right guardian blue bird quickly used the immortal's guidance to open a vent with a diameter of about five centimeters. Without this vent, Wu Shandi would have died of suffocation due to lack of oxygen. At this critical moment of life and death, Wu Shandi felt very guilty. If he had not sang a song, he would not have triggered an avalanche and would not have fallen into a desperate situation. Although the right guardian blue bird old immortal was by his side at this time, he was just an ordinary scholar and could not have the immortal's ability to reach the sky. He could be annihilated by nature at any time. "Senior Right Protector Blue Bird, it's all my fault that I was willful and caused the avalanche when I was singing, which forced you to suffer here. I'm so sorry!" Wu Shandi bowed with both hands to apologize to the Right Protector Blue Bird. After hearing this, the Right Protector Blue Bird laughed: "I can go out anytime and come and go freely. Avalanche is just a child's play for me. I have lived in Kunlun Mountain for tens of thousands of years and have seen all kinds of scenes. The key is that if you go out now, it will be tantamount to suicide. I am ordered by my master to escort you down Kunlun Mountain safely. Boy, don't worry, I will definitely find a way to take you away from here." After hearing Blue Bird's words, Wu Shandi's heart was finally at ease. After all, immortals are immortals with boundless magic power that cannot be understood by ordinary people.

The Right Guardian Blue Bird sat on the ground in meditation, his eyes closed, and was using the Immortal Pointing the Way to detect the situation in the valley outside the cave. After about a quarter of an hour, the Right Guardian Blue Bird slowly opened his eyes and said to Wu Shandi: "The valley and the road outside are covered with thick snow, and the original road cannot be found at all. So now I have no choice but to take you down the mountain through the secret underground passage. However, going down the mountain through the underground passage is very dangerous for you. You must be mentally prepared, because the real test has just begun. Rest well here tonight, recharge your energy, and set off tomorrow morning."

At this time, Wu Shandi had no choice. His fate was in the hands of others. He was like meat on the chopping board, at the mercy of others. Although the road tomorrow was dangerous, after today's avalanche, Wu Shandi was glad that he had escaped. He understood that he had to face reality. No matter what difficulties or dangers he encountered, he had to learn to accept challenges honestly and never escape. Wu Shandi gradually calmed down and devoted himself to practicing the immortal method - Immortal Guidance. The right guardian blue bird was also meditating at this time, which was one of the daily compulsory courses for immortals.
